I Think I Love My Wife is a 2007 film directed by and starring Chris Rock. It is a remake of the 1972 French film, Love in the Afternoon by Éric Rohmer. Rock also co-wrote the screenplay with Louis C.K..
Plot
Richard Cooper (Chris Rock) is a happily married man, professionally successful, perfectly content with his home life, his lovely wife Brenda (Gina Torres), and his two young children. While he finds his life great, he is extremely bored. He and his wife never have sex anymore, which is a constant theme around the movie, and this causes him to be rather sex starved. During those dull days at the office, he occasionally fantasizes about other women, but never acts upon the rather harmless impulses. However, an encounter with an old, and very beautiful, friend of his (Kerry Washington) suddenly casts doubt over his typically resilient self-control. At first she just wants to be his friend, or so she claims, but she begins to show up consistently at his office just to talk or have lunch. When the woman begins to deliberately seduce Richard, he is forced to muster up all his strength just to resist her and remain loyal to his wife.
Trivia
